Vegetable oils are highly processed and can release harmful toxins when cooking at high temperatures. Coconut oil is a better option due to the high smoke point making it a better oil to cook with. A small amount goes a long way!

Probiotic rich and low in sugar, need I say more? Kombucha is the it thing right now in the drink world and we can see why. With the various flavours and brands available there should be one that suites your tastebuds.

Oh cheese, the highly addicting topping that many seem to love. Cheese is a very high calorie food that is filled with fat, sodium and cholesterol. Instead of sprinkling on parmesan try nutritional yeast. Nutritional yeast has a very cheesy like flavour and is a great source of B12.
